An HTML file is already a text file. When you say cnvert it to a text document, do you mean strip the HTML encoding? If so, David Frankenbach recently posted a very neat way to do this in the MS newsgroup.

LOCAL oie as internetexplorer.application
oIE = createobject( "internetexplorer.application" )
oIE.Visible = .t.
oIE.Navigate( "www.microsoft.com" )
DO WHILE oie.Busy() && Let the page finish navigating
ENDDO
oDoc = oIE.Document
lcText = oDoc.documentElement.innerText
? lcText
